Traveling Bugs Me Again

My son sent this image to me via WhatsApp while I was still under the "Shingles Attack."  I was quite blur then, furthermore, I didn't have the mood to think about traveling.  If other normal days, I would be very much interested to check out the cheap tickets and will discuss with the "family" via Whatsapp! 

Now that I am better, it is a different story...So are the cheap tickets still on sale?  I am attracted to Perth and Taipei only.... never been there before...

I remember the doctor telling me that traveling might be the reason why I have shingles...  the STRESS is there.... and now I am wondering whether what he said is true or not... it might be true... I did have a very busy time during April and May this year.... I have been traveling a lot....  but I haven't give up yet...  I wanna go traveling again, PERHAPS not this year though... BUT... as Arnold said in "The Terminator"... I WILL BE BACK!

So .....  have you booked your tickets yet?  Do you buy them many monthsr in advance?  I heard MAS is giving out good offers too... hmmm... my traveling bugs are here again... LOL...

  11. Surprisingly could not find any cheap tickets this time! Never mind, next time lah. Travel can trigger shingles? So stressed your traveling? : )

  12. Well, Claire, we have to live life! And you like to travel, so maybe a happy stress? Over here they say that it can only be caught. BUT if your immune system is a bit down, you can catch it much easier.

  18. Didn't get it this time because I can't seems to get a good deal, Claire.

    Maybe I will look out for MAS.

  19. Not really that cheap, especially for us Penangites... many 'cheaper ones' are actually departing from KL... i don't want to trouble myself driving all the way down or buy an extra ticket from PG to KL at extra cost, hehe

    ReplyDelete
  20. well, the promo is indeed attractive. But it's always around once in a while. Maybe this time, you should take a good rest.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
